Family-friendly hotel network Luxury Childcare Association adds four properties

Hotel membership platform Luxury Childcare Association (LCA) has added four new properties to its collection, marking the brand’s first members in Italy, Fiji, Turkey and Malaysia.

The newcomers include Italy-based Mangia’s Hotels & Resorts and Anantara Desaru Coast Resort & Villas in Malaysia.

D Maris Bay (pictured) in Turkey has also joined the portfolio, as well as private island property Vomo Island Fiji.

The group, which is in its second year, now has more than 60 member hotels, with each one earning its place through a “proven dedication to luxury childcare”.

To become an LCA member, resorts must pass “a robust evaluation of their childcare facilities and staffing” and commit to “an annual audit and professional training”. The accreditation is provided through the International Childcare for Leisure and Tourism programme, which has been developed by sister company Worldwide Kids.

Other LCA members include Gstaad Palace and Kempinski Palace Engelberg in Switzerland, Crete’s Fodele Beach & Waterpark Resort and Gennadi Grand Resort in Rhodes.

LCA revealed in December plans to launch an agent portfolio and strengthen its relationship with the trade throughout 2026.
